16 Just an observation:
17
18 Started a VM on my main workstation ... Windows XP inside of VMware Player.
19 Not even KVM or something ...
20
21 Connected that funny stick to that very VM ... and connected to funky
22 internet on first try ...
23
24 So what about that?
25
26 UNIX/Linux runs what percentage of the internet?
27
28 ok ok ...
29
30 LTE is new
31
32 linux has only a small percentage ...
33
34 gentoo even less.
35
36 I spent my whole afternoon trying to connect this very stick to the
37 internet ...
38
39 via 2 linuxes and 1 bsd .... not ONE connection.
40
41 Right now I pull in an ISO at >1100kB/s, via that very stick, into an XP-VM.
42
43 (seems I don't have LTE coverage here ... but some UMTS or so )
44
45 -
46
47 Might be just plain ignorance by the provider. Not telling me access
48 infos etc.
49
50 My ADSL is slower.
51
52 *sigh*
53
54 Just a bit of feedback :-)
